Put the bacon in a cold pan and heat it. When the bacon is rendered, add the sauerkraut.
2
Pour in the vegetable stock, add the bay leaves and let everything boil down together over a low heat.

Season with salt, pepper and sugar to taste.

Prepare the schupfnudeln

1
Cook the potatoes in their skins, let them steam a little and then peel them.
2
Press the potatoes and knead them with the egg yolk, butter, flour and semolina as well as a little salt and nutmeg (if necessary) to a smooth dough.
3
Divide the dough into evenly sized portions and roll them into the typical Schupfnudel shape.

Now boil the Schupfnudeln in lightly salted water for about five minutes until they float to the surface. They can then be processed further according to taste.

Already finished

When the Schupfnudeln are ready, push the cooked cabbage to the edge of the pan, increase the heat a little and melt some butter on the free surface of the pan. Take care that the cabbage does not burn. Now fry the Schupfnudeln briefly in the butter, then mix everything together and serve directly.
